IELTS Test Platform for Universities & Colleges

Benchmark every student against the official IELTS band scale, run authentic computer-based mocks across your whole program, and track cohort readiness from one dashboard — with automated scoring, AI-assisted Writing feedback and department analytics.

Assessment infrastructure for your program

One platform for delivery, scoring, feedback and reporting — so your team can focus on teaching and readiness, not marking and logistics.

Benchmark against the band scale

Score every student on the official IELTS band scale so you know exactly where each cohort stands against the requirement they're aiming for.

Instant Listening & Reading scoring

Objective sections are marked automatically the moment a student submits — no faculty time spent on answer keys or spreadsheets.

AI-assisted Writing feedback

Every essay gets a criterion-by-criterion band estimate and specific feedback in seconds, giving tutors a consistent starting point across large classes.

Cohort & program analytics

Track band trends across a term or program, compare cohorts, and see weak skills and question types at a glance for department-level reporting.

Placement & progress testing

Use authentic tests to place students into the right level at intake and measure gain over the course of a pre-sessional or pathway program.

Scales across classes

Assign the same authentic mocks to dozens of groups at once and manage students, tutors and results from one organization dashboard.

Secure, exam-style delivery

Deliver timed, focused, exam-like sessions to assigned cohorts — a controlled assessment environment, not a public quiz link.

Your institution's branding

White-label the student-facing experience with your logo and accent colour so the platform sits naturally inside your program.

Built for how universities work

From intake placement to conditional-offer readiness, the same authentic assessment fits each stage of your program.

Pre-sessional & pathway programs

Set an entry benchmark, run regular checkpoints, and show every student exactly how far they are from their conditional-offer band — before they sit the official test.

Placement & streaming

Use an authentic four-skill test at intake to place students into the right level, so tutors start each class with a clear, comparable picture of the group.

Progress tracking & reporting

Give program leads term-over-term band data per student and per cohort — evidence of progress for reviews, funders and quality reporting.

Frequently asked questions

Can universities use IELTS Level Up to benchmark students?

Yes. Students sit authentic computer-based IELTS mocks and are scored on the official band scale, so you can see exactly where each student and cohort sits relative to the band they need — at intake and at any checkpoint.

Is it suitable for pre-sessional and pathway programs?

It's built for exactly this. Set an entry benchmark, run regular checkpoints across the program, and track each student's progress toward their conditional-offer band, with cohort analytics for program leads.

How is student progress tracked across a term?

Every test result feeds a per-student and per-cohort dashboard, so you can see band trends over the term, compare intakes, and identify weak skills and question types — useful evidence for internal reviews and reporting.

How are Writing and Speaking assessed?

Writing gets an instant AI-assisted band estimate with criterion-by-criterion feedback — clearly framed as an estimate, not an examiner grade — which your tutors can review and finalise. Speaking is delivered as a live three-part mock with certified instructors.
